HeatSmart Marshfield is the latest community clean energy initiative to help residents and businesses save money on their energy bills while also reducing their greenhouse gas emissions. HeatSmart Marshfield is a grassroots program driven by a group of volunteer residents with support from the Town of Marshfield.

HeatSmart Marshfield is focused on promoting clean heating and cooling technologies. Heating with fossil fuels accounts for nearly 30% of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) in Massachusetts. Reducing these carbon emissions is necessary to meet the ambitious state and local targets for GHG reductions: Massachusetts has set a goal of 25% reduction below 1990 levels by 2020 and 80% by 2050.

To help in this transition away from fossil fuel-based heating, HeatSmart Marshfield is promoting: (1) cold climate air source heat pumps (ASHP), (2) ground source (or geothermal) heat pumps (GSHP), (3) modern wood heating, and (4) solar hot water.

After evaluating many proposals and interviewing seven companies, the HeatSmart Marshfield team selected: Achieve Renewable Energy (ground source heat pumps), New Day Energy (modern wood heating), New England Ductless (air source heat pumps), and RES Solar (solar hot water).

Benefits of participating in the HeatSmart Marshfield program include:

  • A transparent, discounted price
  • Qualified, experienced installers, competitively selected by a volunteer selection committee with support from home energy experts and the state's Clean Energy Center
  • A clear and process for participating in the program and accessing state and utility incentives and financing
  • Educational workshops where you meet the installers and get your questions answered
  • The opportunity to talk with homeowners from your town who have already installed these clean heating and cooling options about their experiences

HeatSmart Marshfield is part of the 2019 HeatSmart Mass Program supported by the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center (MassCEC) and the Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources (DOER).
